1. Time is money.
--- It means that time is valuable as, and even more than spending money, because we can't earn it and can't save it. So we should use it preciously.
2. A stitch in time saves nine.
--- It means that if we do something well a first, we don't have to do it again, later. It has same meaning with the word teachers always says "If you listen and study well during class, you don't have to study that hard before test"!
3. There's no time like the present.
--- It means that we should live the present. It has no meanings with regret of past or worries of the future - nothing changes. The oly thing we can do and we should do is, to live the present ad try the best for everyday.
4. Fasionable late.
--- It means a reasonable late. For example, getting late for a few minutes when we are invited to a person's home party. We are getting late on purpose to give the person a little time for relax and to get ready. So it is a cool action that cares about others.
